About Lindy’s Stamp Gang

Lindy's luscious luster is all uniquely two-toned! With vibrant shimmery sprays, flat 

sprays, vintage sprays, embossing powder and lots more!

Lindy’s Stamp Gang is the creative” baby” of Lindy Plakinger. She passed away in 2008 

after bravely battling illness. She was a self-made cartoonist, loved drawing, crafting, 

designing new products, and creating her funny cartoon characters! One of her greatest

joys was traveling to stamping and scrapbooking conventions across the US, demo-ing

to her heart’s content with her sister, and giggle partner, Vicki! 

Lindy’s Stamp Gang will continue, as was her hope, and dream. Her husband and 

daughter have taken over the company keeping her creativity alive. Tracey, (her 

daughter), has always been a “jar filler” in the background of Lindy’s Stamp Gang, but is 

now trying to fill some incredible shoes!

Sketch Challenge no.30

Hello Everyone

We are back today with a sketch challenge. We really hope you will play along! I love the sketch and think it's a goodie! ;-)

We have an awesome Special Guest Designer today and she is remarkably talented.

When I first saw her work, I loved it instantly, and I am sure you will too!

Pascale B.

"Hello sweeties, my name is Pascale. I'm living in France, near Tours, with my two teenagers. I started scrapbooking at the end of 2010.  One of my hobbies is photography and over the years I've taken a lot, really a lot, of pictures, but they always stay in my computer.  I've always like handicraft. So scrapbooking is just a way to combine two of my hobbies, a way to express my creativity and to showcase my photos. Since I began to scrap, flowers are part of my layouts, and I gradually started to use mixed media as well. I don’t know how to define my style, perhaps something like free vintage shabby style could be a good definition.

But it’s up to you to judge :) "

Pascale created an amazing and beautiful page!

The colouring is so soft and beautiful and the details just so perfect and beautiful.

The texture and elements are just so fabulous!

Pascale has a wonderful style and it really is so beautiful!

We also have the pleasure of 2 previous TOP 3's creating for us and first up is

Galachko.

Galachko created this amazing and beautiful page!

The background and texture is so amazing....Just so super!

I so loved the depth of this page! ;-)

Second up is Mette Kallander

Mette created this fresh, upbeat and gorgeous page. I love the retro feel of this page! ;-)

Thanks sooooo much to Pascale, Galachko and Mette for providing such beautiful inspiration! ;-)

Please pop over to their blogs, I am sure they would appreciate a visit!

We also have the design team to inspire you and I know you will not be disappointed! These ladies really made the sketch their own.

Part 2 - More about our Design Team

Hello Everyone

This is part 2 of getting to know our new DT members. Again, these are really talented and creative ladies and I am so thrilled to be working with them! ;-)

So let's get right to it and let me tell you a little more about Julia Tsvetkova

My name is Julia,Ii live in St.Petersburg (Russia) with my husband and our two cats:)

I have been scrapping for about 1 year. I love freestyle, mixed techniques, I love to make scrapbook pages, some cards, digital scrap and embroider.

Here is some of Julia's beautiful work.

Next up is Libeeti Frenkel.

Hi, I'm Libeeti Frenkel. I live in Israel, nearby Jerusalem, with my two boys, aged 12 and 9.

I work fulltime job and I love my job very much, but I'm also an addicted scrapper :).

I started scrapbooking on 2010, with the encouragement of a virtual friend, and I was totally hooked by this hobby. Scrapbooking became my stress relief from the everyday duties.

Besides scrapping, I also love reading, traveling, being at the beach and wathing the waves, etc.

I have been very fortunate to be on several DT, and currently on the CSI DT (Color, Stories, Inspiration); Stuck?! Sketches DT; Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge DT and a Guest Desinger of an Australin embellishment store StudioFourteen40.

I love to work with sketches and to try new techniques, new mediums and everything that makes me go out of my comfort zone. My style can be described with multi-layers, distressing and mixed media, but I also love to try a CAS style and vintage/shabby chick styles.

If you wish to see my work, I'd be very happy if you pop over to my blog:

http://creationswithlove-li-bee-ti.blogspot.co.il/

and while you're there, I'd be happy if  you leave a trail to your visit.

I'm thrilled to join the team here at Scrap Africa, with all the talented ladies of the team, so thank you, Denise, for taking me in.

Let's have a look at some of Libeeti's eye candy.
